AP: Obama a Jock?

In case you didn’t know, this is what passes as journalism at the AP (emphasis mine):

[Obama has] spent his adult life in big cities — New York, Chicago and, now, Washington. Basketball, golf, and bodysurfing are how this jock rolls. Indoor daily gym workouts are the norm.

How this “jock” rolls? I don’t know how he rolls, but I remember how he bowls: a very un-jock-worthy 37. And afterwards he had the audacity to make fun of special olympians.

Isn’t this the same jock that threw out the first pitch to the All-Star Game? The Fox Network cameras were positioned so that they would not show the actual pitch. MLB did show the entire pitch in an All-Star wrap-up, but it was hard to tell whether or not the ball hit the ground (some say it did) since you can’t pause it. Albert Pujols was positioned on top of the plate, rather than behind it, and the ball still nearly hit the ground.
